We travel internationally and enjoy luxury boutique hotels. Pro: Luxury hotel with wonderful hotel staff! We loved everything about it...the room, our view, the turn-down service, food, amenities, location, and more. Improvements Needed: The gym needs some updating (one treadmill works), the rooftop has a great view however, we were overlooked numerous times our first night, did not return. The pool is nice but grab a chair early, there is no vibe (bring your own music) but the drinks are great. Our favorite restaurant (for locals) was Bistronomy by Nico.

From the moment we arrived we were treated very special. The service and hospitality of every single employee was impeccable. The food options and bar service was excellent. The rooms were clean, made up and turned down every day. They even replaced partial toilet paper rolls!! Amazing stay. Highly recommend. You will not be disappointed!

The perfect hotel!

This hotel is stunning!! I was there with my daughter and daughter-in-love and it was perfect for our girl’s trip! La Patisserie was so convenient for morning coffee and pastries. Camellias is a bougie pink cocktail bar that also serves afternoon tea! We enjoyed both of these on site treasures. The rooms are gorgeous, very quiet and comfortable! Highly recommend!

We had 3 rooms, 2 of the 3 had no AC, after a terrible night they “fixed” them. For what this place cost, throttling the ac units should not be a thing.
